So, remember last week I meant to draw people wearing masks and I ended up drawing a ninja? Well, this week I drew the people I meant to draw last week. Here it is: People Wearing Masks.

Trump Signing Things
Here’s another Trump caricature designed for shutterstock. It’s a scene that he repeats regularly, whenever he signs something. So, I figure it should be useful for future political articles. I was careful not to make it offensive. That way it got past the shutterstock censors easily.
Shutterstock and Trump Caricatures
So, I finally got some information I needed yesterday about shutterstock’s rules for stock image submissions.
I have several celebrity caricature and political cartoons that I want to sell for stock images, but they can only be sold for editorial use because they’re images of real people rather than fictional characters and I don’t have a model release. Istock won’t allow illustrations to be sold as editorial stock, but shutterstock allows this, which is just what I needed.
I had a few cartoons and caricatures of Donald Trump, one of which was clearly offensive and kept getting rejected when I submitted it. I suspected it was being rejected due to being offensive, but they never said that. They kept saying they didn’t like my description or the keywords. I gave up on it for awhile, but I tried again a few days ago and I finally got a response that it was rejected due to being an offensive subject.
Which is fair.
It’s also what I needed to know.
My new Trump caricature (below) is very neutral. It’s not quite complementary, but it isn’t offensive at all. I figure this one should easily pass shutterstock’s censors and, based on my sales of my other Trump images, it should sell reasonably well also.

You’re Fired!
Here’s another Donald Trump caricature. I think the last one turned out better, but this one’s okay. I don’t think I got his face quite Trump-y enough, but he’s still recognizable so I’m calling it done.
This one’s inspired, of course, both by his iconic catch-phrase and by his recent firing of Acting Attorney General Sally Yates.

Inktober: Invisible Man in Costume
Inktober #27
This is a request from ladystormcrow on tumblr. She wanted the Invisible Man choosing a Halloween costume. So, I gave him the best costume. 🙂
